DANGER OF A GENERAL sTRIKE-CoMPLAINING OF

there is no indication OF early settlement of the
trouble. The of the strike thoroughly in

The strike in the Pocasset Mill has been declared
off, and but few of the old employees we're reDstated

TO keep the mill in operation There ia general feel-
ing Of dissatisfaction among operatives at nearly all
tie mills, and a big strike is probable. general
meeting of cotton spinners will be held on Tuesday
night, when the question of iDsttuting strike will be
acted upon.
Secretary Howard of the spinners' Association, in
his circular issued to-day, says
Bad spinning, low wages and excessive labor are the
complaints presented from eighttcuths OF the mills in
the city. 1t Is bad enough for the labor oil man to be
increased beyond human endurance but 1t il worse to
be paid less tor it, There seems to be justice
In such method OF reasoning. that the harder man
works the less wages he shalt receive. 1t is tact
that all the mills with very few exceptions, have
made money during the last quarter, and it IS fact
which cannot successfully DO controveted that all the
spnners have been indirectly reduced wages
through bad material and other causes during the
same time. IL takes very little alteration in the
material or in the amount OF ny and waste mixed
among it, in these days OF high speed. when mules

have lett their work owing to bad spinning and re-
duced wages. Comp ANTS from several other miila
will also be brought before your notice, and the
majority of the committee think 1t would be advis-
able, instead of having odd mill strikes aud ockouts,
to put end to this continual mosquito biting by let
